Frame Relay frustrating!

Robbo777

Hi, so I have put together a config in packet tracer and it's all working as far as the 3 interior networks go. When it gets to trying to get the 3 routers on wan links to speak using frame relay, it doesn't want to know.
They're all properly configured with the right sub interfaces and DLCI trust me I have re re re re checked it. The DLCI' are all mapped together on the cloud in packet tracer as well:

R1 to R2 using DLCI 102 for R1 and 201 for R2 etc... but none of them will talk or ping one another! Odd thing is I can't even ping them on the router they're configured on haha! Never see that before and yes they're all on! Basically.....its doing my head in  and i need some help with it fast.


Thanks for the help!

Can you post the config for each router?

Mitechniq

Just a quick glance on my phone, your interfaces are not on the same subnets.

192.168.1
192.168.2
192.168.3
192.168.0

Please make the subnets the same on connecting DLCIs.

shortstop20

As was pointed out, your connections between routers are not in the same subnets.

No offense, but I wouldn't suggest diving into things like Frame Relay if you're still learning IP addressing and such.

Robbo777

Wow i cannot believe i actually did that! I over thought it and didnt even see that!

Cheers

Mitechniq

No worries, that's what we are here for..

Robbo777

R1, 2 and 3 aren't seeing each other at all as neighbours, the frame relay point to point connections are able to ping though! Very confusing!

Router3#sho frame-relay map
Serial3/0.301 (up): point-to-point dlci, dlci 301, broadcast, status defined, active
Serial3/0.302 (up): point-to-point dlci, dlci 302, broadcast, status defined, active

I have noticed that there are no dynamic addresses being formed as well. Why and could this be an issue?

You don't have the frame relay links included in your EIGRP process.

Robbo777

Not quite sure what you mean? could you give me an example of what you're talking about?

Deathmage

You probably need a FR switch, look at my post on this section on FR too and reverse engineer the config.

I myself learn better but working in the CLi after watching videos, except I watched a CCNP video on FR on CBT Nuggets because my CCNA videos forgot to mention a FR switch, lol!!!!!

You need to include network statements for the frame relay subnets under your eigrp process.

Robbo777

Wow worked perfectly after this! Thanks a lot man, well done
